Slain DNC Staffer Was ‘Excited’ To Work For Clinton Campaign, Dad Says

Murdered DNC staffer Seth Rich was preparing to work for Hillary Clinton‘s campaign, his father has revealed, only adding fuel to the fire of conspiracy theories that have surrounded his death.

Joel Rich was devastated after the brutal murder of his son, Seth, who worked as an analyst for the Democratic National Committee. A little over a month ago, the 27-year-old was brutally gunned down near his Washington D.C. home. The killer was never caught and the motivation for the slaying remains a mystery.

“We don’t know if there’s one person or two people – all we know is that there was a scuffle. Seth’s watchband was torn, so somebody had tried to grab that,” the grieving father said.

“We want to get this solved, that’s the number one thing,” Joel told the Daily Mail.

Joel revealed that only four days prior to his son’s death, Seth found out he had been selected to join Clinton’s team in Brooklyn, after yeras of hoping to work on a presidential campaign.

“He had just found out they wanted him and he was probably going to be moving up to Brooklyn through the election. He was really excited about that,” Joel said.

Seth Rich has been rumored to be the source of the DNC Wikileaks scandal.

Police have called his murder a robbery gone bad but Rich was found with his phone, watch and cash.
